What is the Value for ST?

Dear Experts,

Please clarify the doubt.

I am having a doubt regarding the following queries; when, if, a person is required to pay service tax as a recipient of service for the service imported from the country other than India what would be value of service; for the payment of service tax need to pay. The queries are

1. If, the agreement to pay in Indian Currency, invoice value is Rs.10,000

(a)If TDS deducted from the Rs. 10,000, (Rs.10,000 less TDS on Rs.10,000), Service Tax on value?
(b)If TDS is not deducted from the Rs. 10,000 (pays Rs.10,000 to foreign vendor) and TDS pays from India Company, as per agreement. What is the impact on Service Tax and Income Tax? Service Tax on value?

2. If, the agreement to pay in Foreign Currency, invoice value is $10,000
(a)If TDS is deducted from the $10,000, ($10,000 less TDS on $10,000), Service Tax on value?
(b)If TDS is not deducted from the $10,000 (pays $10,000 to foreign vendor) and TDS pays from India Company, as per agreement. What is the impact on Service Tax and Income Tax? Service Tax on value?

Based on the above queries, I would like to know the following:

3. What is the impact on Service Tax (regarding the valuation of taxable service and others like gross amount?) and Income Tax (admissible or non-admissible expense and others, if any – amount), in both cases?

4. What are the requirements to be fulfilled regarding the same in both the cases, under different statutes?

Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
Srikanth

Cumulative Provident Fund

Hello,

An employee open a cumulative provident account in a bank in 1992, in the name of employee and employer jointly. Now they get only 3 % interest on that amount as the reason the account is open as saving account. Now they want to transfer this amount to other provident fund account where they get 9% interest rate. How it is possible without charging any tax?
